Chapter 629 Keep Her Dignity or Be the Champion

“Let’s look forward to seeing which team will come out on top this year.”

“Now, onto the last question. Franklin D. Roosevelt mentioned the Four Freedoms in his 1941 State of the Union address, and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights reaffirmed these four freedoms as well. Please state all the four great freedoms. Start answering… Now!”

The moment the emcee finished talking, the red light on Mayweather University’s side lit up.

Tiana and her other team members looked bewildered, and after looking around, they realized that it was Sophie who pressed the buzzer.

“Do you know the answer?” Tiana asked, already feeling hopeless.

“What the hell? Don’t you know it’s very disadvantageous to be the first to answer?!” Malia was so angry that she nearly flipped the table.

The emcee was already urging the team without waiting for Sophie’s reply, “Okay, will Mayweather Polytechnic’s reserve team members please give us the answer?”

Sophie swallowed; she felt so nervous that she was trembling.

In all honesty, she just didn’t want to miss the only chance to make a comeback. She thought that Tiana and the others must know the answer, so she pressed the buzzer. However, it turned out that none of them knew the answer.

The entire country was watching her on TV, so she couldn’t just give up no matter what.

Sophie clutched the corner of her skirt, took a few deep breaths, then hesitated before stuttering out her answer, “They are… Speech… Freedom of speech and expression of opinions.”

At this point, she paused. How was she supposed to remember the foreign culture so clearly?!

“Miss Bowen.” The emcee reminded her kindly, “You need to state all four great freedoms for it to be considered the correct answer.”

She swallowed nervously as the timer on the big screen was on countdown. The more she tried not to pay attention to the numbers, the more anxious she became.

“Five, four, three, two, one…”
